I am searching for the latest developments on an engineering problem. The problem is that the search engines return thousands of pages on the subject, most of which I have read many times. Is there any way to limit a web search to sites that appeared within the last month? | |
Re: The purpose is to make sure that your pages [B]keep working[/B] when browser upgrades occur. I learned this lesson the hard way, when half of my pages that used to work suddenly quit working right. I then had to rewrite the whole site. Changes in the way browsers interpret bad … | |
Re: They are intended to separate parts of forms. | |
Re: There is no way to universally make something take the height of the viewport. Don't even try - it's a waste of time. There is no standard way across browsers to do this. A height of 100% on the outermost container takes the viewport size in some browsers, but takes … | |
Re: Different browsers use different standards when [icode]height: 100%;[/icode] appears in a box object that is not contained in another box object. Some browsers use the height of the viewport, others use the size of the document. My advice is to never use a percentage height unless the object is contained … | |
Re: One problem is that you have an invalid style. 0px is invalid. Do not attach a unit of measure to the number 0. Many browsers reject the entire style when this appears. | |
Re: Has your service provider blocked these sites for some reason? | |
Re: Just add an id, and get the element that way. | |
Re: The history is in: My computer C:Documents and Settings\*****\Local Settings\History Where ***** is replaced by the name of the logged-in user. Be quick, because it is kept for only a week. | |
Re: California has 2/3 of the lawyers in the US because New Jersey got to choose first. They chose toxic waste instead. | |
Re: It doesn't matter what science says about spanking. Both spanking, and the desire to abolish spanking, are religious beliefs. Both are protected by the Constitution, and neither should become part of the law. | |
Re: IE sometimes gets confused when you name a class or an id using a tag name. | |
Re: Note that some search engines can not search certain sites unless the robots.txt file is present. | |
Re: You are never going to exactly fill a screen with an image. There are too many differences in screen resolution, aspect ratio, and browser configurations among different computers for you to expect it to work. | |
Re: I use action=none when I don't want any submission. | |

Re: It is never a good idea to define custom colors for links to other pages. The reason is that most browsers allow users to overide the colors you define. The user can set the normal text color, the hover text color, the visited text color, and the background color. These … | |
Re: There is no way to fill the viewport exactly that works on all computers, browsers, window sizes, screen resolutions, and screen aspect ratios. Do not attempt to do this. It is not intended to be done, so it is not part of the W3C standard. Div is not currently defined … | |
Re: You aren't going to save a binary file as a text file. The question is: do you want to make a binary dump of the file (displaying the hexadecimal code for the content of each byte as text), or separate out the bytes themselves, leaving them in numeric form? In … | |

Re: Please realize that you can't embed your player in a web page and have others use it. They can use only the players they have installed on their own computers. | |
Re: [QUOTE=dami06;994468]I'm not sure where to put my background image in this code and how to make the image transparent. Could you please help me out. Thank you[/quote] The background image url belongs in a style for the body tag. I am not sure what you mean to make the image … | |
Re: No. That requires a reboot of the computer with the resolution change. If you can, define everything in inches or percent width/height. Don't expect images to resize. | |
Re: Negative numbers are not part of the W3C definition for margin. Browsers go into quirks mode when they encounter them. Note that it is NOT necessary to make a separate style sheet for IE. I have been able to make web pages that render the same for all browsers. The … | |
Re: - Alignment is not inherited from div to table. You need to apply the style to the td tags. - The php script may be overriding the style. - If there is any syntax error in the style, the entire style becomes invalid in some browsers. You have syntax errors, … | |
Re: First of all, 0px is an invalid style attribute. Some browsers throw out all styles where a unit of measure is attached to a 0 value. Second, as long as you define all of your sizes in pixels, you are going to have trouble. Different computers have different screen resolutions. … | |
Re: This is a homework assignment. Do not give the answer. | |
Re: The problem is that vertical centering can not be done in a way that works on all computers, browsers, screen resolutions, screen aspect ratios, browser configurations, and current browser window size and ratio. Anything that works uses some kind of kludge that may stop working with any software update. The … | |
Re: Can you put some text boxes out to the sides, and connect them with key letters (e.g., box D) to the select boxes? | |

Re: That dotted line indicates that the picture has the focus. That is a windows function. It is supposed to be there. | |
Re: You might have to tell FF where the port is. Go into Tools/Options and check the settings. What kind of connection do you have? | |
Re: The biggest problem is its incompatibility with various software products. The second biggest problem is the learning curve. I am upset whenever Microsoft releases a new operating system, because I get same troubles each time: 1. The kind of software and hardware I use requires a real-time interface with the … | |
Re: There is only one way Microsoft would have my respect, and that's the day they STOP CHANGING THE OPERATING SYSTEM. | |
Re: We need a single standard that never changes, not a hodge-podge of pseudo-standards that keep changing. | |
Re: Is this because the real spammers are there, or because the computers crackers have taken over are there? | |
Re: We have too much government. They should not have control of your site. | |
Re: If you want the table to be the width of the screen, use: [icode]width: 100%;[/icode] Remember that different computers have different screen widths in pixels. | |
Re: That's a reserved function which opens a menu. | |
Re: You have to set your body overflow style to scroll. | |
Re: Neither 0 px nor 0px is a valid code. 0 px has a space in it, which makes it two different items. 0px does not work on some browsers, and causes the entire style to be eliminated. Those browsers can not take a unit of measure with a 0 value. | |
Re: Your DVD player for TV won't play any computer files. You have to convert it to video to do it on your TV. | |
Re: If you are expecting the background color to fill the div around the edge of the square image, you need some padding. If you expect the background color to fill in around an irregularly shaped object in the image, you have to do one of two things, because all images … | |
Re: Questions: 1. Why do you need this specific font? 2. Why not just designate a commonly available font as a substitute? 3. Can you capture the image of your text in the font you want, and display the image instead? With a .gif file, you can even make the background … | |
Re: This is usually not a browser issue, but a player issue. The player expects to be on top when it is running. | |
Re: 0px is not a valid style. Use just 0 for all 0 values. Do not attach a unit of measure. It causes some browsers to throw away the style. | |
Re: The real tools are xhtml and css. Everything else just comes up with approximations of what you want, and tries to write code in these two languages. The code is not always good. Even Microsoft Word can make web pages. But the code is horrible. | |
Re: If you are using a bookmark, try typing in the url for the site without using the bookmark. Site upgrades frequently cause this problem when bookmarks are used, especially if the bookmark goes somewhere other than the site home page. | |
Re: Something is disabled in his browser. There is a setting on some browsers to print just the text, to save paper. |
The End.
